CBT Core Skills Training – Day 1&2 - refresh CBT knowledge & skills base

Description

Delivering high quality Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) requires a sound knowledge of the model and high level of skill in using the core techniques. The CBT therapist’s work is further complicated as they strive to adapt their therapeutic skills to meet the unique needs of our clients. This can be challenging, rewarding and also a pressure in our clinical work as we work to deliver quality CBT therapy for the wide range of presenting problems, personality types and the personal/social circumstances of our clients.

This event is for both intermediate/advanced therapists who want to refresh their CBT knowledge/skills base and also for trainee therapists who are building their knowledge/skills base. We will explore a selection of the most commonly used techniques and give the opportunity for knowledge/skills development by reconsidering the theory, common obstacles and engaging in skill practice.

There was simply too much to cover in one day so we are offering 2 days. Each day is a stand-alone event, or together, provide a comprehensive exploration of CBT core skills.

Day 1

We will start off by considering the therapeutic relationship and session structure from a CBT perspective. Then we will explore the CBT view of Core Beliefs/Rules for Living and Dysfunctional Assumptions in terms of their far-reaching influence and how we identify and modify them. We will then consider the concept of Guided Discovery as a dynamic process in which the therapist supports the client reflection on their thoughts/beliefs and how these cognitions impact on their functioning within their daily lives. Focus will then be on skills development via didactic teaching, skills practice and discussion on the following tools:

Day 2 we will cover

In day 2 we develop skills via didactic teaching, skills practice and discussion on the following tools:
